Products with Retinol

Retinol is a Vitamin A derivative that helps smooth the look of fine lines and refine uneven texture. With continued use, it supports a firmer, more even-looking complexion and is a cornerstone of age-defying skincare.

Retinol, and Where to Find It in This Shop

Retinol is a vitamin A derivative that skin converts into retinoic acid, which encourages surface cells to turn over faster and supports the appearance of firmer, smoother skin over months of use. It remains the most studied over-the-counter ingredient for the look of fine lines and uneven texture.

Four professional lines carry it here. Revision Skincare Retinol Complete 0.5 and Retinol Complete 1.0 cover the two common strengths, Obagi360 Retinol 0.5% and Obagi Retinol+ PHA add a buffered option, Alastin Renewal Retinol 0.5 combines it with TriHex peptides, and SkinCeuticals Retinol 1.0 Refining Night Cream anchors the high end.

Can I use retinol if my skin is sensitive?

Usually, with adjustments. Begin at 0.5% twice a week, apply to dry skin over a moisturizer, and increase only once flaking has stopped. Buffered formulas with PHAs or peptides make the gentler starting point.

How to shop at ELLEMES

Retinol is light- and air-sensitive, so packaging and turnover matter. Everything here is bought directly from the brand and stocked at our Sandy Springs medical spa.
